Evan Moss is an anti-racism activist based out of Santa Cruz, California. Born and raised in Arkansas, he comes from a family known for driving change in their community. He’s been actively thinking about race, about his skin and how it impacts his reality, since the first grade. His philosophies regarding race evolved quickly when he moved to Las Vegas in middle school, and again when he moved to Pittsburgh to attend Carnegie Mellon University. His activism began in full earnest eight days after George Floyd was killed when he first gave a presentation titled “Let’s Talk About Race” that went on to become a movement within Apple and beyond. In the presentation, he articulates the experience of witnessing George Floyd’s demise from the perspective of a Black father. In his own words, “I want to enable people who feel they don’t experience racism directly to stop saying ‘I can’t understand” when conversing with someone who does. I want to help the victims who suffer in silence to realize the power that lay dormant in their stories waiting to be told, in their experiences waiting to be shared.” His motivation is simple. One day, his two mixed-race sons—currently ages 1.5 and 4 years old—will ask him to explain all things race. He’d rather get it wrong before thousands of strangers if it means he gets it right for Brixton and Hendrix.
